【Course Objectives】

This seminar deals with sonnets and sonnet sequences written by American poets from Wallace Stevens to Adrienne Rich. Through intent and critical reading of their 14-line poems, students will be able to appreciate the appeal of their works and to develop “the ability to analyze as well as synthesize content” and “the skills to conduct accurate and objective surveys” as outlined in the Curriculum Map.

【Course Contents】

 Edwin Arlington Robinson, who can be considered a precursor of early 20th century modernism, wished that sonneteers would “vanish in irrevocable night.” They seemed to him to be nothing more than poets who composed “songs without souls” in “a shrewd mechanical way.” Robinson, however, echoed this condemnation in a sonnet of his own. When he wanted a poem that would make “the sunset as before” look like a completely new one, he turned to sonnets.
 In this seminar, we will focus on sonnets, poems both old and new. And they are American ones. This is because, while there is a tradition in the history of American poetry that can be described as anti-sonnet, there has been an unobtrusive production of noteworthy sonnets since the mid-19th century. For example, cummings, who deviated from tradition and tried such free and original forms of notation and verse, was in the same lineage of free and innovative poets as Whitman, but sometimes returned to the sonnet, experimenting with the old form in an effort to manipulate it in a flexible manner. This class will also explore 14-line poems by Millay and others to unveil novelty hidden underneath as well as the struggle the poets experienced.
